A recent deal has left me with only 5 D and we need 6 min (I prefer 7).

This deal reloads my D and keeps me young, but Marleau is a legit 65-70 point guy for a few still and I am hoping to contend. Feels like too much, when I can opt for plan B....

Simply drop Alfe if no season for a waiver D and worry about it later, or if there is a season prob drop Foligno, as he is not too valuable.

Any thoughts on this one?

Nope.

In a 9F/6D league, you'll need premium defensemen in probably 4/6 spots.
But the other 2 defensemen you'll find you swap out with a hot waiver-wire player.
So there's no point in trying to obtain two waiver-wire value guys like Voynov & Josi.

If it was my team, I'd simply plug your 6th spot with a ho-hum defenseman and then swap him out when the season gets going.
Marleau has too much value in a 19-team x 9F league.

Too little for Marleau here. I'd be shopping him for a more proven 6th Dman. Josi playing alongside Weber is promising, but Voynov will always be second fiddle to DD. Could a Marleau not fetch you someone like Burns, Campbell, Streit, Goligoski...? I'm not a huge Marleau fan, and I'd shop him around for a better player...quality over quantity.

Marleau is still an awesome player to own. Not enough value for him. Don't downgrade talent unless you have to.

I agree with the rest of the guys, too little for Marleau. You are going to want to get a bonafide d-men in return for Marleau and not 2 wanna be's.

Especially in a league where goals count extra, Marleau has nice value, of which neither Josi nor Voynov will repay. If it were me, I'd roll with a young unproven d-man/rookie off the waiver wire for a little while who has a guaranteed roster spot and hope to catch lightning in a bottle (Matt Donovan? Paul Postma?), and if that doesn't pan out after a couple of weeks, grab whatever you can find off the waiver wire.

Thanks for the confirmation. I agree. I am a big voyo fan though.

Now the question becomes who to drop?

Nick Foligno or Alfe??

If we have a season id much rather keep Alfe but if not then hes done.

Whod you drop?

It seems like your pressing to address your needs here, I would just keep Marleau.

He's a proven commodity and you know what you're going to get.

I'd want a D I can count on, Whitney is made of glass.

You're on the right track though.
